Breaking of the Lorentz symmetry
superconformal transformations break the Lorentz symmetry down to .
But superconformal transformations preserve the full Lorentz symmetry.To understand the Lorentz symmetry, we define ten superfields in the following way:
simply speaking, to define , we take and substitute and
A characteristic property of superconformal transformations (as a subgroup of ) is that
they commute with the standard action of the Lorentz group on .
